Article Synopsis
- PCOS is linked to a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease, necessitating more frequent metabolic screenings for affected women, typically every 2-3 years.
- The study examined 49 Caucasian women with PCOS, dividing them into groups with normal and abnormal lipid profiles, while measuring various anthropometric and biochemical parameters.
- Results indicated that women with dyslipidemia were older, and while BMI and Body Adiposity Index did not correlate with total cholesterol, other lipid parameters were significantly related to these measurements, suggesting age is a strong predictor of metabolic risk in this population.
Background And Aims: Vitamin D plays a pleiotropic role in the human body. Some studies have suggested that hypovitaminosis D may serve as a marker of comorbidity severity and length of hospital stay. Hospitalized older adults patients with a higher comorbidity burden tend to have lower vitamin D status, which negatively impacts the length of their hospital stay.
